Pizzo di Cassimoi is a mountain of the Lepontine Alps, located on the border between the Swiss cantons of Ticino (west) and Graubünden (east). The mountain overlooks two lakes: Lago di Luzzone on its north-eastern side and Zervreilasee on its north-eastern side.

A glacier named Vadrecc di Sorda lies over the northern flanks below a secondary summit (Pizzo Cassinello, 3,103 metres) on the side of Ticino.
